		<description><![CDATA[Reflecting upon the events of December 30, 2008]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://wheredidmybraingo.com/g2/h.jpg" height="100" width="90" title="Hamas" alt="Hamas logo"/> I started my day watching <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynthia_mckinney" title="subjective bio" rel="external">Cynthia McKinney</a> on <a href="http://www.cnn.com/gaza/" title="war coverage" rel="external">CNN</a>. McKinney was complaining that Israel <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/dec/30/israel-gaza-aid-ship" title="Israel accused of ramming Gaza aid boat" rel="external">prevented her</a> and <a href="http://www.freegaza.org/index.php?module=passengers&amp;category=223" title="Passengers on Dignity" rel="external">her friends</a>, from crossing a <strong>blockade</strong>, on a self-described <a href="http://www.freegaza.org/index.php?module=latest_news&amp;id=06ec9655d88714c7ffaf8b1534783da3&amp;offset=" title="Israeli Gunboats Came out of the Darkness and Rammed us Three Times" rel="external">mission of mercy</a>, bringing medical supplies to wounded Palestinians.</p>

<p>McKinney also wanted to <a href="http://www.freegaza.org/index.php?module=passengers&amp;id=cea444398e14ca7cbb89847c7ea38301&amp;offset=" title="about" rel="external">assess the ongoing conflict</a>, so she will have something <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_29,_2006_Capitol_Hill_Police_Incident" title="March 29 2006 Capitol Hill police incident" rel="external">new</a> to complain about.</p>
<p>I went directly from television to <a href="http://wheredidmybraingo.com/ask-israel-about-operation-cast-lead/" title="Ask Israel About Operation Cast Lead">the Israeli press conference</a> on <a href="http://twitter.com/" title="What are you doing?" rel="external">Twitter</a>. During this conference, I learned that <a href="http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull&amp;cid=1230456531782" title="Red Cross sending 10 tons of medical aid to Gaza" rel="external">Red Cross and World Health Organization</a>, are sending medical supplies to Gaza hospitals.</p>
<p>So, the <a href="http://www.usnews.com/usnews/opinion/baroneweb/mb_020829.htm" title="Lessons from Rep. Cynthia McKinneys defeat" rel="external">former Congresswoman from Georgia</a> could have stayed home.</p>

<h3>Make Videos, Not War</h3>
<p>It was very easy to sign up for <a href="http://twitter.com/Mitchell_Miller" title="I am Mitchell_Miller on Twitter" rel="external">Twitter</a>, so I decided to try <a href="http://digg.com/users/MitchMiller" title="I am MitchMiller on Digg" rel="external">Digg.</a> <strong>Wow!</strong> Two great new ways for me to waste time! Especially Digg!</p>
<p>However, I eventually found two short videos, that were good enough to write about.</p>
<h3>Eirik Solheim</h3>
<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/user332278" title="Vimeo profile">Eirik Solheim</a>, collected <a href="http://eirikso.com/2008/12/27/one-year-worth-of-images-give-some-amazing-videos/" title="One year worth of images give some amazing videos">one year&#8217;s worth of images</a> of his backyard. Photos were taken on a &ldquo;balcony&rdquo; with his camera in the same place, for each photo.</p>

<p>Solheim compressed the photos, along with sounds of his backyard, into two <strong>impressive</strong> videos. Check out the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmIFXIXQQ_E&amp;NR=1&amp;fmt=22" title="high quality video on YouTube">year in 40 seconds</a>, or a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzNUrZbalss&amp;fmt=22" title="high quality video on YouTube">year in two minutes</a>. I <strong>really</strong> like the shorter version.</p>
<h3>Simon Panrucker</h3>
<p><img src="http://wheredidmybraingo.com/g2/SimonPanrucker.jpg" height="48" width="48" alt="Simon"/> <a href="http://simonpanrucker.com/" title="homepage">Simon Panrucker</a> made me laugh for the first time today, with <strong>36 seconds</strong> of <a href="http://vimeo.com/1195256" title="high quality video on Vimeo">Curiosity.</a></p>

<p><a href="http://vimeo.com/1195256" title="high quality video on Vimeo">This gem</a> shows what happens to people who spend too much time alone, with their laptop.</p>
<h3>Tomorrow</h3>
<p>Using Twitter and Digg inspired me to write about my day. I visited <strong>many</strong> Web sites today, and it just seemed natural to write about some of them.</p>
<p>My only wish for tomorrow, is that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas" title="The Day of Judgement will not come about until Muslems fight the Jews">Hamas</a> stops <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestinian_Conflict" title="Israeli-Palestinian conflict">bombing</a> Israel.</p>
